“This can only be done when the Sam Rainsy Party is elected and Mr. Sam Rainsy becomes prime minister.”Outspoken opposition parliamentarian Mu Sochua, who lost a defamation case to Prime Minister Hun Sen that resulted in a salary deduction, has vowed to go after the courts to demand reform of the country’s judicial system.
“We, the opposition party together with all the people, demand a justice system that is truly independent and does not act as a political tool,” Mu Sochua said as a guest on “Hello VOA” Monday.
Mu Sochua lost her final appeal to the Supreme Court in June. Her salary will now be garnished to repay approximately $4,000 in court fines and compensation to Hun Sen, who countersued her when she brought defamation charges against him last year.
Mu Sochua appealed to Cambodians to rally behind the opposition Sam Rainsy Party to demand that judges renounce membership from the central committee of the ruling Cambodian People’s Party and to call for an active Supreme Council of Magistracy to oversee judges’ performance. She also called for sufficient lawyers to provide legal services to the people.
“This can only be done when the Sam Rainsy Party is elected and Mr. Sam Rainsy becomes prime minister,” she said. “We are determined to get this done.”

That would be a little bit harder Muo, when you ask thieves to change law or justice system.
Madam Mu, who are you kidding? Mr Sam Rainsy can fix the reform if elected?
Holy s--- He can not even fix the corruption problem within his party.

Mu sochua: Where is my dildo? I can;t live without it
No way that you cab be a PM in the near future, Mr Sam Rainsy. Your pattern have indicated that you have betrayed khmer people 3 times in the past already, in 1998, 2003 and 2008.
You have jointed with Hun Sen to form an ILLEGAL government that was signed by Ah NHEK BUNCHHAY (King and Chea Sim have refused to sign).
Get lost Ah Sam Rainsy.
it's good to seek reforms in our judicial system, however, do not wait until sam rainsy become prime minister! maybe next time life. yes, sam rainsy always lives overseas, how can he become khmer prime minister? khmer prime minister supposed to live in cambodia with the people of cambodia. sam rainsy is not suitable for prime minister of cambodia because for one, he has to win the majority election, then must meet all requirements under khmer constitution and law, etc... if sam rainsy and mu sochua smart, they too should be reformed; otherwise, it is hopeless in winning the national election for prime ministership. wake up already! listen to the smart people of cambodia, ok!
One Eye Jack will never change anything that maybe harmful to it and it's daddy; the Viet.
Cambodia desperately need Judicial reform to become prosperity and the stability of the kingdom 's economy. Investors want to see a clear law. No guessing games Sir. I don't have time to play around with you.
